1965 Map of Grand View Mesa

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Grand View Mesa and Scenic Mesa dominate this mid-1960s landscape, where a complex network of man-made waterways supports the plateau agriculture of western Colorado. The map reveals the intricate engineering required to move water across this terrain, featuring the Grand View Canal, Fruitland Canal, and several others such as the Clipper Ditch and Aspen Ditch. These irrigation systems wind along the contours of the mesas, starkly contrasted by the deep incisions of Red Canyon and the winding course of the Smith Fork.
